The long awaited episode on the rapid emergence of Saudi Arabia and the Saudi Pro League (SPL) as footballs new 'superpower', but why is the lauded new frontier seemingly so secretive on business and football agent matters?

On this episode the shows guest is Gad Cohen, a leading agent from the Saudi Frontier who managed the transfer of Croatian star player Marcelo Brozović from Inter Milan to Al Nassr in 2023. Gad provides insight into what it is like to operate in the Saudi Pro League, the targets, the aspirations as well as the all important 'key(s)' to success.

There is also closer analysis of the long term vision for Saudi football, the clash and threat (if any) that Saudi football poses to European football, as well as whether womens football can follow the mens game in developing to prominence.

Plus, what would you do if as a football agent you were presented with the sight of 10 million euros 'cash' in a bag during a player transfer?
